NABCA - Club Tips

SAMPLE TIP #1

Booster Basics
Here is a sample list of 15 tips that pretty much cover all types of booster clubs.

1. Always open booster club meetings to the public.
2. Develop mentoring programs for all key executive level positions.
3. Break down events, activities and tasks into small, achievable portions for each volunteer.
4. Conduct pre-season planning sessions with coaches, program directors and school officials. Let them know your group is their to support them and also needs their support as well.
5. Make membership an opportunity for the member to receive discounts, extra-benefits, exposure.
6. Produce a monthly newsletter.
7. Keep in contact with old booster club officers, members and alumni.
8. Send notices of upcoming events, meetings and activities to your local newspaper.
9. Encourage coaches and program directors to promote active support of the booster club at orientation meetings.
10. Allow input and suggestions from all parents and supporters. This doesn't mean you have to implement them, just let them have their input like you.
11. Schedule activities designed to do nothing more than get to know your supporters and have some fun.
12. Recognize your volunteers - regardless of how large the success.
13. Develop multiple levels of membership.
14. Visit parent meetings at schools and programs involving younger kids within similar activities - invite them to attend special events and activities.
15. Develop postcards, flyers and promotional pieces where you can promote your mission and invite people to become a member and support your program.
